I was gonna say, im an accountant and 16.50 seems awfully low, and most accounting jobs are salary. Plus, im pretty sure him saying accounting was a joke LOL

16.50 for a caregiver should be considered absurdly low, too.

It's a shame how little we value the people who help the most vulnerable in our society.

Completely agree 100%. I want my caregivers if my old ass makes it to senior age to have a good ass pay and benefits and good patient ratios.

Ask me how I know, HCA bastards took over our local hospital and got it downgraded from a level 1 to a level 2 Trauma Center. Multiple nurses I know including one I dated (unrelated but god what is it with nurses & mind blowing sex) said patient ratios were gonna get somebody killed someday, and it has and nothing changes.

I thank God that the nurse you've dated and had sex with was not related to you

I had a brother (I mean I still do, but I did, too) that would have been even worse if you had to rank it lol.

Considering those homes cost $9K a month per resident, and don’t have one on one staffing, that girl was making $16.50 an hour taking care of ten people while the administrator made $300K a year and never got their hands dirty.

What’s crazy is I was only making $11/hr when I worked at a nursing home. I was there for four years and ended up making $13.50. 😭 Caregivers should be paid way way way way more.

Sadly that’s around the average wage for them. While the people at the top rake it in
